Pros
None anymore they have gutted it to nothing if you want to be gone all the time with no compensation apply
Cons
Csx doesn’t care about you only the share holders. They run these long trains up to 14000 feet and have no where to park them so you sit on it 12 plus hours every trip then 30 plus in hotel get home for 10 then back out on the same stuff and they want to fire you every chance they get it. Can’t pay us a decent raise but we worked through pandemic with no extra compensation but don’t worry the company made record profits. Constantly have to check your check because they always try to screw you out of something.. if you want extra stress added to your life apply and like a company run by people with out any railroad knowledge then this is the job for you.
